Correspondence to the past: The essence of the archaeology metaphor
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 February 2010
Abstract
The correspondence view of memory is not a metaphor. However, correspondence is the essential feature of the archaeology metaphor, which harks back to Freud and Neisser. A modern version of this metaphor and some of its implications are briefly described. The archaeology metaphor integrates the idea of stored traces in a nonmechanistic framework.
